Training

Preparing our communities, leaders, and first responders.

Established in 2010 in the port city of Hilo, Hawai‘i, the Pacific Regional Disaster Preparedness Center (PRDPC) coordinates and hosts training sessions to prepare first-responders, government officials, and people from all walks of life for natural disasters and other emergencies.

"...the community at large will be among those benefiting from PRDPC training and course development."

In addition to offerings from the broad selection of courses found in the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s National Training and Education Division Course Catalog, PRDPC is also working to provide the public with audience-specific disaster preparedness training. Security personnel, community leaders, and caregivers for senior citizens are among the groups that will benefit from being trained to prepare for and respond to natural disasters, as well as recover from their aftermath and mitigate the impact of future events. First-responders, planners, decision-makers, and ultimately the community at large will also be among those benefiting from PRDPC training and course development.
